The two stood at the forefront, conversing with each other.
"Captain Zhang, this time we owe it to your Earth Escape ability, which helped us avoid a lot of danger. I didn’t expect the outskirts of Changbai Mountain to have so many fierce beasts!"
The old man, with a kindly face and a smile, praised.
"Old Li, you’re overestimating me. My Earth Escape ability lasts too briefly, only useful in emergencies. To seize the treasure this time, we’ll still have to rely on you, sir!"
Captain Zhang gave a wry smile and shook his head.
"Sigh! The military assigned such an important mission to this old man. I don’t know what they were thinking. If it gets messed up..."
A hint of melancholy flashed in Old Li’s eyes as he sighed.
"Old Li, who else has the Invisibility Ability like you? The military looked around and found that only you are the most suitable."
Seeing the old man a bit worried, Captain Zhang quickly comforted him.
This time, the military dispatched them both to lead, not only because their Extraordinary Abilities were suitable, but also because they were Innate Transcendents.
Innate Transcendents refer to those who awakened Extraordinary Abilities naturally, without the aid of earthly treasures, similar to the natural awakening of fierce beasts.
Thus, their strength was considerably superior to their peers.
Otherwise, the military wouldn’t have entrusted them to lead this operation.
Moreover, Old Li’s Invisibility Ability was crucial for this treasure-snatching mission.
This ability allowed the entire extraordinary team to enter an invisible state, passing through the perilous forests of Changbai Mountain smoothly.
Unless there were beasts with exceptionally sensitive perception and smell, none would detect the existence of the extraordinary team.
However, his Earth Escape ability, though able to transport everyone underground and avoid danger, consumed a lot of his Spiritual Power, lasting only up to ten minutes, making it impossible to use as sustainably as Old Li could with his ability, and only useful in emergencies.
Just like the previous encounters with danger when the extraordinary team ran into beasts with especially keen smell and perception. Thıs text ıs hosted at Nove1Fire.net
To avoid alerting the enemy, they could only use the Earth Escape ability to get past.
After a few words, a team member hurried over and said, "Captain Zhang, Old Li, the military orders us to seize the opportunity and infiltrate the valley to capture the Treasure Tree!"
"Great, finally the orders have arrived!"
Captain Zhang was instantly overjoyed.
The previously stifling mood quickly dissipated.
Changbai Mountain is not a safe place; if the team lingered too long, deadly danger could strike at any moment.
Now that the orders have come, it’s best to set off immediately, complete the task in the shortest time, and leave Changbai Mountain as soon as possible.
"Alright, let’s go then!"
Old Li nodded, waving his hand. Tiny specks of silver light arose, spreading in the air like a brilliant silver gauze enveloping everyone.
Subsequently, the silver light quickly dimmed and disappeared from the air, and the figures below vanished instantly.
After completing the invisibility, everyone quickly headed in the direction of the valley.
At the moment Jiang Che and the golden giant eagle struck, the Mouse King seized the opportunity to command the black rat tide to launch an attack.
A purple-black light burst from the Mouse King, covering the entire rat swarm.
Under the mysterious purple-black light, each giant rat became fiercely aggressive, their bodies enlarged, eyes bloodshot, and ferociously wild.
They fell into madness, crowding and howling, transforming into a black torrent surging continuously towards the mountain peak.
Nearby, the Giant Pangolin also launched an attack, its thick claws shrouded in gray light, slamming the ground heavily.
In the tremors of heaven and earth, the surging gray Spiritual Light swept across the ground, while rock scale armor, shaped like the pangolin’s scales, surfaced from the earth.
Each piece of rock scale armor was the size of a door and had extremely sharp edges glinting with a metallic sheen.
They gathered in the air, radiating shimmering gray lights.
With a roar from the pangolin.
Pieces of rock scale armor shot through the air, tracing gray streaks like an enraged swarm of killer bees, densely firing towards the mountain peak!
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Che turned around, his eyes shimmering brightly.
Thunder and lightning, booming thunder resounded throughout the sky and earth.
Massive purple Thunder Balls hung high in the sky, the dazzling purple light of the spheres’ surfaces brimming with leaping lightning, emitting waves of thunder.
The Thunder Balls, as large as water tanks, were like numerous purple suns illuminating the sky with purple glow, dominating the entire firmament.
The next second, each Thunder Ball glowed purple, slicing through the sky, striking towards the black rat tide like missiles.
The Thunder Balls unleashed terrifying power; as they plunged into the flowing rat swarm, they exploded instantly, their formidable might obliterating everything within a hundred meters, turning the ground over and sending dust flying.
With each Thunder Ball descending, the once massive rat swarm was quickly erased like a drawing being wiped off a board.
At this moment, the earth turned over and shattered, large trees vanished into nothingness, reduced to a scorched land.
The black Mouse King, under the relentless Thunder Ball strikes, didn’t even have time to utter a scream before it disappeared into the blinding thunder light, its body annihilated.
On the other side, the rock scale armor propelled by the Giant Pangolin also launched its attack.
Countless gray streaks tore through the air.
Pieces of rock scale armor crashed against Jiang Che’s purple-golden shield, causing ripples but failing to breach it.
The Giant Pangolin’s dark eyes glimmered with shock, a chill seizing its heart.
A life-or-death crisis!
Its body emitted a gray glow, its robust front claws flashing brilliantly as they gently dug into the earth. Instantly, more than half its body burrowed into the ground.
"Trying to run? Ridiculous!"
Watching the pangolin’s actions, Jiang Che sneered coldly in his heart. With a gentle step forward, his tiger palm surged with lightning, a powerful thunderbolt dove into the ground from his tiger palm, spreading rapidly, reaching in an instant.
The ground trembled, the lightning flickered, and the earth exploded instantly. The pangolin, which had burrowed into the ground, had no time to rejoice before being blasted out along with large clumps of earth.
The flying pangolin only managed to let out a terrified roar.
In the sky, the erupted Thunder Balls struck directly.
The intense explosions echoed continuously in the air, the blinding flashes enduring without end.
By the time the pervasive purple light faded and the Thunder Balls were spent, the Giant Pangolin had vanished without a trace, turned to dust.
The world fell into silence!
At this moment, the forest outside the valley had turned into a desolate scorched land.
The golden giant eagle, the black rat tide, and the Giant Pangolin had all been slain by Jiang Che in a matter of moments.
As Jiang Che retracted the lightning around him and was about to relax.
Nangong Luo seemed to sense something, quickly looking towards the ground, his eyes icy cold.
"It’s the aura of humans!"
